Blade vortex is BROKEN *video pve added (boss molestation)*
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VqRRe9vDVOI&feature=youtu.be
now imagine what it does but with level 90 + crit... 1 shot dominus with level 13 gem and other bosses. in PVP, 1 shot skill even with level 13 gem. Added with poison and it s just impossible to deal as a 2h melee. Thing deal more damage than a cyclone and they don t even have to click one button. There are allready level 80 toon one shotting my 9k life marauder just running to me. Even while leaping you still get hit. The AOE is enormous I don t really understand why cyclone was nerfed if it to create a crit-spell cyclone like skill 3 time more powerful. I would like to add that it break traps on floor and trap thrown at you lol. Haha GG GGG " " " Forum pvp Last edited by lolozori#1147 on Dec 13, 2015, 2:25:44 PM

Yeah, it's OP as heck.
And holy crap does it ever trigger things. lvl 1 CWDT + lvl 8 blade vortex + power charge on crit = 3 power charges always Then if you self cast (or cyclone/coc), you basically have unlimited life gain per second from Cybil's paw. The hit rate on even one spinning blade is nuts. It's funny in pvp though, when a blade vortex runs into someone with a good tempest shield link (it's not pretty for the blade vortex). Never underestimate what the mod community can do for PoE if you sell an offline client. Last edited by Vhlad#6794 on Dec 12, 2015, 6:05:18 AM

It's almost as if no one tested this thing before release. Oh wait...

Jesus, is that for real??
I had no time trying out the new patch, but if what you say is true.. holy shit. Hard to hear this, with all those GGG fanboys on the forums, who praise the Grindig Gear Gods to heaven, and that all their decisions is outstanding. The contrast is then enormous with the "incinerate was OP, and this (huge) nerf was totally legit; stop whinig, etc.) and now such a skill.. nice. |

"i can agree its an op skill but i would rather not have it fixed UNTIL i have gotten to try out its current stage... and besides, i dont see how they could possible balance it out, mabye reduced the overall stat a bit or make it not increase in damage, i just cant see how this issues would be solved I usually do not read popular posts again after i made a comment on it, unless it's one of my own. I wish to have a Black robed Grim Reaper micro set in game one day, grant my wish, GGG

Chris designed it probably.

It's an endless cycle of new OP skills that subsequently get nerfed to oblivion in a future patch when the next OP skill is introduced. Enjoy while it lasts before they cut the damage and cast speed in half.
Shop closed until further notice. Check out my Dominus musical tribute instead:

Yes it seemed OP to me even unsupported at low levels but was not sure(posted in gem feedback).Also because it surrounds you it acts partially as a shield,I noticed this with suicide minions where they don't stand a chance of getting you,instantly dieing to the blades.I can imagine with leach it is even more OP as far as survival goes.
I do like it as a main skill rather than a support skill but while it is OP it is hard to get to imaginitive with it knowing it will likely be nerfed. |

it is always the same - each patch had something broken-as-f
and i think it is BY DESIGN. to attract people that need 'the powah' and to have a skill SO BROKEN that it can carry even the clumsiest of players ill make my first cast on crit character this league and for sure ill abuse this spell as it is simply designed to be abused |
